Watercolour work of Eric Ravilious. I love this work, much in the same way as I appreciate the subtlety of the watercolour work of Angie Lewin. One can only wonder that he produced so much beautiful work in such a short life. An official War Artist, he died before reaching 40. He was killed on 2 September 1942 while accompanying an RAF air sea rescue mission off Iceland that failed to return to its base.
